Jamal Ahmed

Bittersweet
That’s the word that sat with me this weekend as I turned 41.

Because the truth is…
I shouldn’t be here.

Not by most people’s expectations.

At 4, I was told I’d never be able to write - never hold a pen properly.

After my hand was injured in an accident, the doctors told my parents I’d need to rethink my future.

Weignored them.

But what followed in adulthood was worse than the injury:

- Years of failure
- Business ideas that flopped
- Debt I was too ashamed to talk about
- Burnout so deep I couldn’t get out of bed

I’ve been humiliated in rooms where I was the only one who looked like me:

- Told to “tone it down.”
- Told I was “too ambitious.”
- Told I’d never amount to much.

I’ve cried silent tears in empty offices.
I’ve even questioned whether I was cursed.
I’ve broken down on the bathroom floor at 2AM.

And just when I thought I was getting ahead…

I buried three of my children.
Held their tiny bodies in white caskets.

And somehow… still woke up the next morning.

Not strong. 
Just stubborn enough not to give up.

And that’s why this birthday feels different.
Because I’m not here to celebrate myself.

I’m here to honour the version of me who didn’t quit 
even when no one believed in him.

And to serve the privacy professionals who feel like they’re behind.

If that’s you, I’ve got something coming this week.

It’s not just a gift.
It’s a lifeline.

Because you don’t need more motivation.

You need someone who’s been through the fire...
…and came back with a map.

Stay close

Something’s brewing in Dubai
And it’s not just the qahwa.

I’m not coming here for the views

I’ve come to help leaders fix the privacy gaps
they can’t afford to ignore any longer.

No buzzwords
No recycled “best practices
Just sharp, strategic advice — off the record.

This week, I’ve got a few hours set aside
for the right conversations.

1:1. Discreet. Solution-focused.

If you’re a business leader in Dubai
and privacy is becoming too big to guess your way through…

I land in a few hours - DM me

We’ll keep it simple
We’ll keep it pragmatic
We’ll keep it between us - for now

Some people think DPIAs are just checklists;
That mindset is hurting your organisation:

A DPIA isn’t a box-ticking exercise

It’s a risk radar
It tells you where and how personal data could cause harm.

Most privacy pros look for templates
Great ones ask better questions.

Here’s the Easy Peasy way I explain DPIAs:

- What’s the goal of the processing?
- Could this hurt someone if done wrong?
- How do we minimise that risk?

You don’t need a complex form.
You need structured thinking.

Clear thinking creates real protection.

Stuck in your career? It’s not your fault;
You’ve just been following the wrong strategy:

Last night, I spent 3.5 hours shifting people out of

“I’m not ready yet” 
and into clarity, confidence, and job offers.

Naomi says it was "it was truly eye-opening"

Chima' says "it completely transformed my perspective"

Bukola decribed it as "a breath of fresh air"

Here’s what hit hardest:

The 3 invisible blockers keeping smart people stuck
The 3 moves that actually get you hired

And the shift was instant.

This wasn’t theory;

It was the same roadmap that’s helped 73,000+ professionals 
pivot, grow, and lead.

The C5 Framework works every time!

And Chika Adams set the room on fire with her transformation story!

If you missed the live session, the replay’s up.
Not to fill seats.

But because the right strategy changes everything.

You're not behind.
You're just unmentored.
